「𝑶𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒂'𝒔 𝒑𝒐𝒗」

I woke up because of someone knocking on the door of my room. I groaned and rubbed my eyes tiredly. I sat up in bed and looked at the door and stayed silent for some reason, just listening to whoever was there knocking. I then snapped back to reality and spoke.

« Who is it...? » I asked in a rather tired voice.

« Me! » Sodo's voice came from the other side.

I sighed loudly just so Sodo could hear it on the other side of the door.

« Why so early? » I asked.

« Neptune, it's 11 AM, wake up! » Sodo exclaimed as he knocked harder on the door, which only made me more annoyed.

« Alright, alright, I'm up. » I muttered as I stood up and went to open the door.

Sodo stood there, wearing a black Guns N' Roses shirt, a pair of dark blue jeans, as well as a red bandana around his head. The Guns N' Roses shirt immediately made me remember.

The concert!

Sodo looked at me and started chuckling quietly. « You forgot... » He said playfully.

« Somehow. » I said before turning around and quickly heading to my closet to check for the perfect outfit for the concert.

I took out a Guns N' Roses crop top, black leather pants, a belt, and some accessories such as a red bandana like Axl had and a pair of sunglasses. I somewhat AGRESSIVELY shoved Sodo out of my room so I could change, and he just stood in front of the closed door, waiting.

When I was done, I stood in front of the mirror as Sodo entered the room again. I was putting on dark red lipstick after having put my eyeliner. Sodo sat on my bed while looking at me before he stood up and walked over to me.

« Your ass looks great in those pants. » Sodo said with a flirtatious tone to his voice.

I could already feel my cheeks heating up.

« Why were you looking at it in the first place? » I asked sarcastically as I chuckled and looked at him.

« Hey, don't blame me! I couldn't help it... » He said, chuckling nervously.

« It's fine, I was just messing with you! » I said, laughing a bit louder than before.

Sodo stayed quiet for a few seconds as he looked me up and down, checking out my outfit. He seemed to like it.

« Really giving it your all, huh? » He asked playfully.

« Absolutely. I need to look good. Just imagine if Duff sees me? I don't wanna look bad. » I said sarcastically as I looked at Sodo with a playful smile on my face.

« Keep dreaming. I'm the one he's gonna see. Wait, no! Slash is gonna see me. » Sodo said, sounding so sure of himself that it actually made me laugh. « Anyways, you never look bad. » He added.

« Awh, really? » I said, smiling warmly at him.

« Of course. You're the most gorgeous and breath-taking woman out there. » Sodo said as he looked at me with nothing but love in his eyes.

I looked up at him with a smile before laying my head on his shoulder as he wrapped his arm around me.

« I love you so much. » I said softly as I closed my eyes for a few seconds.

Sodo smiled and planted a soft kiss on the top of my head as it rested on his shoulder.

« I love you too. » Sodo said, smiling as he looked at us in the mirror.

I then continued putting on my makeup as I looked at myself in the mirror.

「Later」

Sodo stood outside by his car as he waited for me to go outside and join him. It didn't take long before I joined Sodo outside and hopped in the car with him. He started the engine while I chose the music to play. I didn't even buckle my seatbelt before putting the music on.

« Your seatbelt, love. » Sodo said as he started to get out of the driveway.

« Yes, yes! Just be patient. I need to put the music on. » I said before the song Rocket Queen started playing loudly through the speakers of the car.

I smiled and then actually buckled my seatbelt as we were now on the street, rather far from the house. On the whole car ride there, Sodo and I were singing Guns N' Roses songs loudly, both as excited as one another to actually see them in real life in about four hours.

Yeah... about FOUR hours. But don't get me wrong, it's worth it to be close to the stage. Even if it means standing in line in an arena crowded with people for four hours.

We weren't the first people there, but we were like, maybe the 20th and 21st or something? I don't know, but when we got there, there weren't many people. The more time went by, the longer the line was starting to get, and Sodo and I were glad to have gotten here early.

Much, MUCH later, the doors opened, and despite the people who started to run, we somehow got to the front of the barricade. Well... Sodo just grabbed my hand and pushed past everyone. What wouldn't he do for me?
